Protean Barrier Reservoir

Elemental Core of Oil (****)

Description:

This ‘gem’ is a sphere of fluid moonsilver approximately an inch and a half across, held together and in shape by its own surface tension. It deforms gently when subjected to sufficient pressure, and, when placed in a hearthstone socket, seems to fill the socket and ‘cap’ it with a smooth shield of moonsilver. When the bearer spends a point of willpower to activate the Core, it flows out of the socket to cover the bearer’s body in a thin sheathe of protective moonsilver. If the bearer is already wearing armor, then the Reservoir will fill in the joints and weak points. In either case, the Core provides a stacking +4 to all forms of Soak and Hardness.
